help with colors for a script im trying to make?

i looked through the scar color functions, but i cant seem to make it properly...

what i'm trying to do is monitor a specific pixel e.g. (200,200) which is a specific color e.g. 7915477.
when that pixel changes color to any other color which is not its original color, the script should do a keydown.

my question is, how to script the color action? it seems to me that scar can only detect when a pixel changes into a specific color, and not when it changes into any other color. there doesnt seem to be a 'not' function in scar for saying 'any color except ____' x.x

someone please help? preferably post the one or two lines of script necessary to do this? thanks

 

Hi !
So actually, I've just wrote 2 simple way of doing what you want:
In a loop, the loop monitoring if the color in 200,200 is still 7915477, as soon as the color change, it perform the action keydown

Code (Text):

1. <div class="text" id="{CB}" style="font-family: monospace;"><ol><li style="padding: 0 5px; background-color: #fff; line-height: 16px; border-bottom: 1px solid #efefef; border-left: 1px solid #999;">while(getcolor(40,40)=7915477)do</li><li style="padding: 0 5px; background-color: #f9f9f9; line-height: 16px; border-bottom: 1px solid #efefef; border-left: 1px solid #999;">begin</li><li style="padding: 0 5px; background-color: #fff; line-height: 16px; border-bottom: 1px solid #efefef; border-left: 1px solid #999;"> Wait(250);</li><li style="padding: 0 5px; background-color: #f9f9f9; line-height: 16px; border-bottom: 1px solid #efefef; border-left: 1px solid #999;">end;</li><li style="padding: 0 5px; background-color: #fff; line-height: 16px; border-bottom: 1px solid #efefef; border-left: 1px solid #999;">keydown(x);</li></ol></div>

and you can infact use "not" directly in your script and it should work, like this:

Code (Text):

1. <div class="text" id="{CB}" style="font-family: monospace;"><ol><li style="padding: 0 5px; background-color: #fff; line-height: 16px; border-bottom: 1px solid #efefef; border-left: 1px solid #999;">If not(getcolor(200,200) = &nbsp;7915477)then</li><li style="padding: 0 5px; background-color: #f9f9f9; line-height: 16px; border-bottom: 1px solid #efefef; border-left: 1px solid #999;">begin</li><li style="padding: 0 5px; background-color: #fff; line-height: 16px; border-bottom: 1px solid #efefef; border-left: 1px solid #999;">&nbsp; keydown(x);</li><li style="padding: 0 5px; background-color: #f9f9f9; line-height: 16px; border-bottom: 1px solid #efefef; border-left: 1px solid #999;">end;</li></ol></div>

let me know if you need more help !

 

nice one tharoux,
deathcraze, this seems to be exactly what you are looking for and both of these methods work
i prefer the second one but they both do the same things

 

I do prefer the second method too...
Try to avoid as much infinite loop as possible.

 

I don't really like getColor so I prefer something like:

Code (Text):

1. <div class="text" id="{CB}" style="font-family: monospace;"><ol><li style="padding: 0 5px; background-color: #fff; line-height: 16px; border-bottom: 1px solid #efefef; border-left: 1px solid #999;"> If (findcolor(x,y,7915477,200,200,200,200) = False) then</li><li style="padding: 0 5px; background-color: #f9f9f9; line-height: 16px; border-bottom: 1px solid #efefef; border-left: 1px solid #999;">begin</li><li style="padding: 0 5px; background-color: #fff; line-height: 16px; border-bottom: 1px solid #efefef; border-left: 1px solid #999;">&nbsp; keydown(x);</li><li style="padding: 0 5px; background-color: #f9f9f9; line-height: 16px; border-bottom: 1px solid #efefef; border-left: 1px solid #999;">end; </li></ol></div>

I actually use that on my darblat script

 

thank you so so so much tharoux! i really appreciate it
both methods seem to average around the same score when used on a flash game... though method 2 seems to give more 'consistent' scores
never knew function 'not' could be used in scar too.. this will make future scripts much easier.. thanks again!!
